The sprint was interrupted as a certain bunny made sure to bonk his tamer on the head, prompting a loud yelp from Mikazuki as he inquired "What was THAT for?!" in clear frustration at the abuse from his Digimon, who stood up and rose three fingers as he took a lecturing stance.
"First of all, you need to warn Yuko and Junpei so they won't grow worried about you." Lopmon instructed sternly. "Second of all, you can't waste your good clothes in the sea. You need to change, which means going to the inn and getting ready."
Finally, the bunny jumped down and glanced at the two V-mons and their tamers. "Third, you three need to set up a meeting spot since Mikazuki doesn't know his way around to save his life. The last thing we need is for you to waste a day searching for them."
Logically, Mikazuki was not happy at being patronized by the bunny digimon. "I'm not that clueless, Lop-chan! You're just being mean!" and with that, he pouted. Needless to say, Lopmon didn't look the proverbial horse in the mouth as Mikazuki just gave him another remark to sass about. "You went swimming in a river more polluted than Jokermon's damned soul and fell down a portal to another dimension because you felt it'd be fun. I think that attests to the contrary. Plus, even THEY agree with me." Lopmon gestured towards the newcomers, or rather, veterans to the Digital World.
"I... guess." Finally, the boy-giant caved in, looking decidedly down. "We'll meet on the rocks near the shore, then? I don't know where you guys have your beach house, so could you take me there once I'm back?"
Lopmon nodded proudly as Mika waved goodbye and walked home to follow the Holy Beast Digimon's command.
An hour later, a half-naked Mikazuki sprinted towards the beach, looking around as he waited for the duo to show up while Lopmon rested on his head with a pair of sunglasses, decidedly calling the attention of even some of the most experienced Digimon and Humans with how off the accessory looked against the beast's brown and strawberry pink fur.

There are obviously laundry service, but he guess he shouldn't interrupt the bunny's lecture. For Ryouta these two have quite the interesting dynamic... It looks like a hyperactive kid and a bunny teacher. Well, that's the initial thoughts on them. However... looks like they're REALLY swimming on some dirty river... Ryouta is honestly really worried. What sort of madness is that?
...He haven't seen this before he guess, that the partner is the more level headed o--oh wait there is Tetsu...Gryz did well with him, albeit to softer level when compared to this. Oww, those whacks must be really hurt. But for some reason, Mika probably need someone who can stand their ground when it comes to him...
"Well, there's no need to be so harsh," Ryouta tried to calm down the Lopmon.
"...I feel like I sympathize a bit with Lopmon there. I felt like there are enough incident to cut off lives for several years..." Valt commented. "...Yeah, it's like me trying to hold Ophi..."
"...I don't think Mika is that hyper, Valt... I really don't think so...?"
...the questioning tone at the end definitely doesn't sell it to the XVmon, who just shrugged.
But either way, they soon reached the private beach portion. The rented house is quite huge and spacious, but what's the most important is the facilities. There are of course hammocks, some outdoor grill, some beach gazebo and more. It's pretty much picturesque considering they have this part of the beach for all of themselves.
"Well here he are. You guys can swim if so you want."

Reaching the private beachside property of Ryouta and Valt made the human and dragon eager to get changed, and hopefully, go swimming. The "hopefully" was because they knew the moment they spied the hammocks that all either of them wanted to do snuggle up next to each other inside one. Thankfully, one look at Valt's form was all they needed to shame themselves into immediately opting for more physical activities.
"I think we all have some unstable moments," added the young man to the current discussion on partners keeping the other in check, "and that's why we each have our partner there, to keep us from doing things too crazy or unbecoming. That's what I think. Levi?"
"Uh-uh, I'd say so! But if that's the case, you'd think I don't trust you with how we're pretty much attached to each other at all times. Like, at least within close proximity!"
"Ha! I'd have it no other way! Now, we're gonna go swimming, yeah? Come on, we're gonna go test the temperature of the water! Or do you wanna digivolve and play with Valt some?"
"Are you trying to get yourselves hit by a tidal wave? I'll go Flamedramon, that's it!"

Soon enough, the duo of V-mons and their tamers were joined in by Mikazuki, who just like Ryouta, was nothing short of a sight for sore eyes without a shirt, and also sprinting like a cheetah towards them. "Hey, guys! Sorry for being late. I had to buy more sunscreen and Lop-chan wouldn't leave me alone without it." he greeted enthusiastically, as per the usual Mika standard, almost feeling the need to dash for a hug, but remembering that such a gesture was not something the buffer yet slightly shorter male appreciated and resigned himself to just waving his hand.
"Of course I would not!" Lopmon countered, trying to look up, though it wasn't noticeable through the sunglasses he was currently wearing. "It's almost noon and you'd be turned into a Meramon had I not intervened!"
"Sorry, Lop-chan!" he picked the bunny off his head and proceeded to squeeze it in a tight hug, forcing the rabbit Digimon to squeak out "Too tight! Can't... breathe.", which was enough for the boy-giant to let him go. "Ehehe... sorry." Mika apologized shyly before turning a 180 in his mood and address both the humans and digimon. "So, who wants to go swimming?!"

"I'll just man the grill honestly. I'm pretty famished," Ryouta answered to Mika. Plus he don't need to tan more than this. Various activities under the sun has managed to tan him enough after all. With that being said, the tanned skin made it harder for him to get sunburnt, so he's not as keen to put on sunscreen.
"...By the way, among the three humans only Alan is the thin one huh," Valt spoke out loud. "...and he's the oldest one too."
"Hey, don't tease him like that!"
"Just trying to give him a push at more serious training."
"Seriously, you shouldn't do that to someone..."
As for swimming... "Well, I think I'll go swim," Valt answered. "Give me some food later will you?"
"Sure sure..." Ryouta obviously already starting to work with what he have. Quite fast too. "Catch me some good fish while you're there. I want to make some new dishes."
"Sounds good! Well then, four of you, we're going to swim, yes?" Valt immediately flew toward the shore and let starts swimming. "The water felt nice~ The contrast of warm and cold is interesting~"

Ryouta had decided he would be working the grill. "Hey, that sounds good," commented Alan. "What'cha gonna make? Or is it a surprise? I'm sure it'll be great anyway!" His chipper attitude became a little broken when Valt pointed out the obvious about the physiques of the three humans present. It was clear Alan was the skinniest, but when he was reminded that he was also the oldest, he gave a faint laughter that faded further into silence. When Levi, looked over, he saw Alan gripping his right arm with his left hand. Determined to keep his tamer from sinking into sheepish self-consciousness, he digivolved in a burst of flame to Flamedramon, and removed his sharp claws so he could grip the human on both shoulders and say, firmly, "First of all, this little coincidence here does not mean extremely buff teenagers are the norm. You haven't been wasting time doing anything, and we both find the training fun. So we'll get there. Alright?"
"Uh, alright!" It would seem that this armor champion form was always enough to get the human to listen. Regaining his confidence, the boy cleared his throat and spoke to Valt. "I... doubt you meant anything by it, Valt, but it definitely got to me, just so ya know. In any case, we'll take you up on that swimming offer!" With that, Levi took off his remaining armor, and went into the ocean with Valt, though Alan would be initially cautious of checking for the water temperature. "Are the others coming?"
